"St Mary's Menston has exceeded our expectations!"

We were a bit nervous about moving to a new area and school, but St Mary's has been a game-changer. The facilities are excellent, and my child has thrived in their subjects. We love the emphasis on faith and values - it's a breath of fresh air. We feel so lucky to be part of this community!

"Still finding our feet, but lots of potential"

We're still getting to know the school, and there's been a bit of a settling-in period. My child is enjoying their classes, but we're not entirely sure about the school's approach to pastoral care - we're still getting to know the teachers and the system. Overall, we're hoping for great things from St Mary's Menston.
